Platelet adhesion in an asymmetric stenosis flow modelShrum, Jeff. January 2007 (has links)
Platelets have been shown to be a main contributor to thrombus formation in stenotic arteries leading to acute coronary syndromes. It is thought that increased activation and adhesion of platelets under variable shear and complex flow conditions contribute to thrombosis. The objective of this work was to evaluate the relationship between asymmetric stenosis hemodynamics and platelet adhesion using in-vitro models developed to properly simulate physiological conditions. In this study, platelet rich plasma was circulated through stenotic and straight coronary artery models. Adhesion results were obtained by post-perfusion fluorescent labelling and imaging of adhered platelets. Analysis of platelet area coverage has shown maximum adhesion occurs in the distal region of the stenosis. Most likely this is due to increased exposure time of platelets to the wall of the recirculation zone following the stenosis and that exposure being directly after a period of high shear stress. This result gives us a better understanding of the importance of both shear and flow conditions in coronary artery thrombosis.

Mechanisms of platelet capture at very high shearWellings, Peter John 05 April 2011 (has links)
Arterial thrombus forms from the capture and accumulation of circulating platelets on a stenosis. As the thrombus grows, the lumen becomes further stenotic producing very high shear rates as the blood velocities increase through the narrowed cross-section. This study explores the molecular binding conditions that may occur under these pathologic shear conditions where circulating platelets must adhere quickly and with strong bonds.
Platelets binding in an arterial stenosis of >75% are subject to drag forces exceeding 10,000 pN. This force can be balanced by 100 simultaneous GPIb-vWFA1 bonds of 100 pN each. The number and density of GPIb on platelets is sufficiently high; however, platelet capture under high shear would require the density of A1 receptors to be increased to over 416 per square micron. A computational model is used to determine platelet capture as a function of shear rate, surface receptor density, surface contact and kinetic binding rate. A1 density could be increased by a combination of vWF events of: i) plasma vWF attach to the thrombus surface and elongate under shear; ii) the elongated vWF strands create a net with 3-D pockets; and iii) additional vWF is released from mural platelets by activation under shear. With all three events, A1 density matches the existing high GPIbα densities to provide sufficient multivalency for capture at 100,000 s-1 with greater than 170 bonds per platelet. If the on-rate is greater than 108 M-1s-1, then a platelet could be captured within 15 microseconds, the amount of time available to form bonds before the platelet is swept away. This mechanism of platelet capture allows for the rapid platelet accumulation in atherothombosis seen clinically and in high shear experiments.

Preventing rapid platelet accumulation under very high shear stressPara, Andrea N. 21 May 2012 (has links)
Atherosclerosis is a major cause of mortality in industrialized nations. Atherosclerosis is characterized by plaque deposition which decreases the lumen diameter into a stenosis. The creation of a restriction increases shear rates pathologic levels exceeding 3,500/s. Following plaque cap rupture, thrombus may form from the accumulation of millions of platelets, occluding the vessel, leading to heart attack and stroke. Studies of high shear thrombosis show that platelet activation, GPIIb/IIIa and vWF are involved. However, some recent studies also suggest that high shear aggregation is not dependent on activation or GPIIb/IIIa. Several antiplatelet pharmaceuticals against activation
and GPIIb/IIIa have been proposed, but their efficacy in patients remains mixed. The overall
objective of this project is to determine the factors necessary for thrombosis to occlusion in very high shear regions seen in diseased arteries. Our central hypotheses are that platelet activation and the subsequent conformational change in GPIIb/IIIa are
necessary for thrombosis, and that higher concentrations of vWF in the plasma will
increase thrombosis.
To this end, we developed a new high shear hemodynamic model utilizing 30mLs of whole blood and quantified thrombus thickness, volume accumulation and accumulation rates. We demonstrate that thrombosis to occlusion stems from a second phase of Rapid Platelet Accumulation (RPA). Thrombus accumulation is completely prevented by PGE1 inhibition of platelet activation. Similarly, GPIIb/IIIa blockade via abciximab prevented significant thrombus deposition and RPA. We also found that
increasing plasma vWF levels in high shear regions increased thrombus thickness and
suggestively increased RPA rates. The results clarify the need for activation of mural
platelets for long term thrombus accumulation without the activation of circulating platelets.
